He was a descendant of Abdallah Ibn Masu'd
RA, a companion of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him). An
expert geographer, a physicist and historian, Masu'di was born
in the last decade of the 9th century C.E., his exact date of
birth being unknown. He explored distant lands and died at Cairo,
in 957 C.E.

He travelled to Fars in 915 C.E. and, after
staying for one year in Istikhar, he proceeded via Baghdad to
India, where he visited Multan and Mansoora before returning
to Fars. From there he travelled to Kirman and then again to
India. Mansoora in those days was a city of great renown and
was the capital of the Muslim state of Sind. Around it, there
were many settlements/townships of new reverts to Islam. In
918 C.E., Masu'di travelled to Gujrat, where more than 10,000
Arab Muslims had settled in the sea-port of Chamoor. He also
travelled to Deccan, Ceylon, Indo-China and China, and proceeded
via Madagascar, Zanjibar and Oman to Basra. read

POEM

AN
ODE TO MY DARLING MOM

Where do I begin?
Right from the start...
I grew inside you right under your heart..
Felt every beat while I was in your womb.

You were glowing and happy.
And always full of joy.
To you it didn't matter if it was a girl or a boy...
There were no fancy sonar scans.
All you needed was to be healthy and to make sure that your
baby was healthy too!! read

A very successful businessman had a meeting with his new son-in-law.
"I love my daughter, and now I welcome you into the family,"
said the man. “To show you how much we care for you, I'm
making you a 50-50 partner in my business. All you have to do
is go to the factory every day and learn the operations."
The son-in-law interrupted. "I hate factories. I can't
stand the noise."

"I see," replied the father-in-law.
"Well then you'll work in the office and take charge of
some of the operations."
